Chapter four

Cassie's point of view.

I run. I don't think of anything else but getting there. Rescuing my brother.

I can't let him keep getting beaten. I have seen other people get the whip; I don't want to be the reason why he gets it again.

Ted's point of view.

I race against the wind. That woman is faster than a wild dog. Where the devil did she run off too?

I stop running to catch my breathe. The thought and the solution dawns on me with horror. I feel the blood drain out of my face.

She is going to the center of town. And I know the sick reason why.

Marshall's pont of view.

I feel the rope tie around my wrists tightened. I refuse to scream in agony. The last time I did that, the head peacekeeper in charge, just laughed and then spit in my face. It may sting but it is worse than being called wussy girl every time I cry out in pain.

Barney's point of view.

I see the random amount of people forming into the center of town. All of them with sadness, pity, and anguish as they witness the man struggle against the peacekeepers. The man looks awfully familiar. Sickening familiar. I feel my bile rise up my throat. I see two familiar figures running to the center of town. Oh God no, one of them cannot be Cassie. Marshall would kill me if she sees this. Luckily and thankfully Ted is on her heels. Maybe I can cut her off.

Robin's point of view.

Men. Seriously, men are idiots. Cassie is plainly running madly towards the center of town while Ted and Barney are running towards her which they would probably end up…aim towards one and other.

CRASH

A head on collision. I roll my eyes, and grabbed Cassie by her arms. She is struggling. Kicking and screaming.

"Marshall! Marshall!" Cassie screams hysterically

"Oh Cassie…" I say sadly underneath my breath. She's frantic. Crying hysterically. Thank God Lily called me at the office. I raced over to her house to grab the tranquilizer which was obviously needed.

I press the needle into Cassie's arm and immediately she goes limp.

Ted comes over rubbing his head from the crash.

"Grab Marshall after the whipping and meet me at…"

"Marshall's place. Got it."

Barney's groans are audible to say the least.

"You might need him to help you." I require

Ted nodded in agreement. He stared at Cassie for one minute longingly then took off to help Barney up from the ground. I roll my eyes and sigh irritably. Cassie, why are you so damn stubborn?

Cassie just snores lightly in response.

"Come on kid, let's go home."

I sigh and lift Cassie bridal style and carry her home. I walk home as I hear Marshall cry filled yells with pain.

TBC.
